Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Change From Baseline in EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ESSDAI)
The EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ESSDAI) total score is calculated as the sum of scores for activity level for each domain.
Overall score, which can range from 0 to 123, a higher score indicates more disease activity
Secondary Outcome Measures
Change From Baseline in EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI)
The total score EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI) is calculated as the mean of the 3 individual components.
Total Score Range (0 = Best outcome and 10 = Worst Outcome)
The scores for the ESSPRI individual components will be used as such reported by the participants and entered in the case report form (CRF), without any further calculations. It consists of 3 questions covering cardinal symptoms of Sjögren's syndrome: dryness, fatigue and pain. Each domain scored on scale of 0-10 (0 =no symptom at all and 10 = worst symptom imaginable), and overall score is calculated as the mean of 3 individual domains.
Change From Baseline in the Unstimulated Salivary Flow
The mean change from baseline in unstimulated whole salivary flow at all measured time points up to Week 12
Change From Baseline in Schirmer's Test
The Mean change from baseline in Schirmer's Test at all measured time points up to Week 12
The length in millimeters that the strip wets during the 5 minute test period for each eye. Collection is done separately for each eye.
Change From Baseline in the level of immunoglobulin (IgG, IgA, IgM)
The change from baseline in the level of immunoglobulin (IgG, IgA, IgM) at all measured time points up to Week 12
Change From Baseline in the level of rheumatoid factor (RF)
The change from baseline in the level of RF at all measured time points up to Week 12
Change From Baseline in the level of B -cell activation factor (BAFF)
The change from baseline in the level of BAFF at all measured time points up to Week 12
Change From Baseline in the level of T/B/NK cell subsets
The change from baseline in the level of T/B/NK cell subsets at all measured time points up to Week 12
Change From Baseline in the level of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)
The change from baseline in the level of ESR at all measured time points up to Week 12
Change From Baseline in the level of serum complement (C3 and C4)
The change from baseline in the level of serum complement (C3 and C4) at all measured time points up to Week 12
